Challenge
#1
from a young age I’ve always enjoyed writing it seemed to be the only thing that could keep me together, in all the chaos of life. It wasn’t always the best, my child that is. There was a lot of rough patches, sadness and a lot of bullying. The only place I had to go was into the forest. With my pen and paper.

Welcome, readers. My debut essay, written back in 2014, stands out as the essence of my humble beginnings as I take a trip down memory lane in my writing career. LeBron James' victorious return to the Cleveland Cavaliers was the subject of the article, which not only captured the attention of basketball fans but also inspired me as a writer. It's amazing to see how far I've come in terms of perspective and style when I look back on that timeline.

Author's preface: A few years back Random House copy chief Benjamin Dreyer published an article in which he suggested a list of redundant words which he said we should "delete" from our writing. I took that as a challenge and prepared a short essay using as many of these words as I could squeeze in. Below is the final result of that effort.
Everyday JunglistPublished 9 months ago in Writers“The Enchanted Lighthouse”
Once upon a time, nestled on a remote stretch of coastline, there stood a lighthouse that held a secret. Aptly named "The Enchanted Lighthouse," its beacon not only guided ships safely through treacherous waters but also possessed a mystical power that few knew about.

I was writing long before I can recall scrawling words with ink. Not on paper but in oral fashion like my ancestors from long ago. I would tell elaborate stories, usually through song, to the trees in our yard or the animals at the barn. As a child, my life was a constant narrated musical of what I was doing, what I wanted, and how I was feeling. So, naturally, the first piece of writing I can remember putting to paper was an echo of a song; a poem.

Being a poet at an age as young as 11, some might say is impossible. When one thinks of poetry, it is thought-provoking, gut-wrenching, heart-breaking, and how can an 11 year old possibly have enough worldly experience to write anything so meaningful and deep?

It is strange what you can recall when the past recedes, warps and forces you to reconsider certain moments. This particular challenge is a challenge. Do we really remember the first time we wrote something just for ourselves? There is school, where the pen and paper are put in your hands and you are forced to write about things you may not care about, or to complete assignments that mean nothing to you. There are the letters and cards you might send to your friends, classmates and family. And then, if you do consider it, you want to write or create something of your own. All art is based on imitation of some kind. But I still have to wonder why I wrote that piece.

So You Want to be A Writer? Ahah!
I started writing short stories when I was sixteen it was my favourite time I could writing anything I wanted. Sometimes I would write until 3am, just anything I wanted.
Louise Blake-Michael (Risen Phoenix)Published 9 months ago in WritersThe First Piece I Ever Wrote
I have always loved writing. I used to create short stories when I was finished my school work back in elementary school and high school. I lived in fairytale lands because my real world wasn’t exactly sunshine and roses. I used to use my grandparents computer and come up with character names and gather plot ideas when I wasn’t busy stuffing my nose into a book.
